KOKOMO, Ind. — An Indiana man is behind bars after his 2-month-old baby was hospitalized with skull, rib and limb fractures, authorities said.
According to WISH and WTHR, Chase A. Williams, 20, of Kokomo, is facing aggravated and domestic battery charges, as well as an invasion of privacy charge, in connection with the case. He was arrested Monday and jailed in the Howard County Criminal Justice Center, the news outlets reported.
